About the Event
The parasympathetic nervous system is stimulated when we take deep breathes and relax into poses, which promotes a reducunction of stress in our bodies. The parasympathetic nervous system is responsible for slowing your heart rate and breath and increasing blood flow to your vital organs, among other things. Restorative yoga enables deep relaxation as you holding poses for longer periods of time with the help of props to completely support you. The main focus is that by relaxing in poses, without strain or pain, you can achieve physical, mental and emotional relaxation. Restorative yoga classes are very relaxing and slow paced. Props, like blocks, bolsters, blankets and straps are used so that you are supported in your pose comfortably. You will then hold the pose for an extended period of time. This practice is great to balance an active yoga schedule or to give yourself a break when you feel under the weather.
